a.
Tantum non, analog. to the Gr. monon ouk, to [p. 1842] point out an action as only not, i. e. very nearly, completed, almost, all but, very nearly (perh. not ante-Aug.; in Cic. Att. 14, 5, 2, Baiter reads tantummodo):

tantum alone = tantum quod,
Verg. E. 6, 16. —
c.
Tantum quod non, only that not, nothing is wanting but:
tantum quod hominem non nominat: causam quidem totam perscribit,
Cic. Verr. 2, 1, 45, § 116.

Particular phrases.
a.
Tantum non, analog. to the Gr. monon ouk, to [p. 1842] point out an action as only not, i. e. very nearly, completed, almost, all but, very nearly (perh. not ante-Aug.; in Cic. Att. 14, 5, 2, Baiter reads tantummodo):

tantum alone = tantum quod,
Verg. E. 6, 16. —
c.
Tantum quod non, only that not, nothing is wanting but:
tantum quod hominem non nominat: causam quidem totam perscribit,
Cic. Verr. 2, 1, 45, § 116.

Tantum non, analog. to the Gr. monon ouk, to [p. 1842] point out an action as only not, i. e. very nearly, completed, almost, all but, very nearly (perh. not ante-Aug.; in Cic. Att. 14, 5, 2, Baiter reads tantummodo):

id. 4, 57, 8 Drak.; cf.:

id. Vesp. 5 (but in Liv. 22, 2, 9; 33, 4, 6; Amm. 27, 5, 4, the quod belongs not to tantum, but to the following verb):
tantum alone = tantum quod,

c.
Tantum quod non, only that not, nothing is wanting but:
tantum quod hominem non nominat: causam quidem totam perscribit,
